I know someone who has never owned a TV, yet it took me well over ten years of knowing him to realise this.
I found this out in the mid 2000s.
I’d been around to his house on many occasions and never noticed, though I was usually there to pick him up to go do something else.
We’d talked hundreds and hundreds of times about numerous things, etc etc, yet it was only when I asked him a specific question about TVs that he said the immortal words of “I’ve never owned a TV”.
After another conversation where I initially didn’t believe him I found out that his parents had TVs but he was not really interested in them. And that in the evenings if he didn’t go to the gym, or hiking, or running, or to the pub, rock climbing, bike riding, the cinema, or whatever he would read a book.
He also never took up the full usage of smartphones. He’s got one for work but that’s it. Calls, texts, emails, and that’s it.
He is also one of the happiest and most fulfilled people I know…the fucking bastard 😁
That asshole found the secret to being happy and all it will cost me is TV and access to the Internet…I think that’s crazy enough to work, but I like my vices so nah.
Also he doesn’t own a TV
